MAINTENANCE

General Maintenance

Fuel Filter/Fuel Lines

See your Polaris dealer for replacement of the in-tank fuel filter (1)

every 1000 miles (or annually).
Inspect the fuel lines regularly for signs of

deterioration or damage. Always check fuel

line condition after periods of storage.

Normal deterioration from weather and fuel

compounds may occur. Replace worn or

damaged fuel lines promptly.

CAUTION

Kinking the fuel lines or using a pliers or similar tools to remove

fuel lines may cause damage to the lines. If a fuel line has been

damaged or kinked, replace it promptly.

Oil Filter

The oil filter should be changed annually or every 1000 miles (1600

km). Inspect oil line condition at 1000 miles (1600 km). Polaris oil

filters are specially designed for use on Polaris products. We strongly

recommend the use of only Polaris replacement parts.
EDGE models use an oil filter that’s built into the oil sending unit

located in the bottom of the oil tank. After changing the oil filter, bleed

the oil injection system of all trapped air. See your dealer for

instructions, or have your dealer perform the filter change and bleeding

operation for you.
See page 50 for oil recommendations.
